At the end of their second week, their eyes are starting to open.  They are going  from crawling to standing.  #3 (Maggie) was the first to stand, then #4 started standing.  They have gone from Mom stimulating to make them potty to them being able to do it on their own (both ways).

They were able to eat at midnight and not wake until 6:00AM this morning.  I have begone lifting them when they wake and putting them on their potty pads, so they are at their spot to potty as they wake up.  They learn were to potty by the texture under their feet.  This is the way you potty train them at home, but placing them in the grass and waiting until they go there.

I noticed them starting to hear things more this week.  They have also developed their own thermostat this week and have started sleeping by themselves.

Personalities:
#1 - She seems to be very quiet and calm.  She likes sleeping more than the others, but has started playing now.
#2 - He seems to be independent.  He would try sleeping on his own before his thermostat was completely developed.  I would have to pick him up and put him near his sisters.
#3 - She is a mess and a comedian.  She is very competitive when it comes to eating and stays ahead of the others in weight.  I let others see Mom first before she is giving the opportunity.
#4 - She has a little purr going when she wants to eat; therefore, she is more vocal than the others.  She will let me know when she hasn't had enough to eat and that it is time for her to eat.  I think she may be the alpha of the pack.  I have been putting her with Maggie (#3) to wait her turn to eat.   She is very playful and tries to get around to playing with everyone.
#5 - She is playful and beginning to be vocal.
